I popped into another Boots later on and they had the same sign up saying 'all' nappies so I bought some more in the same way. Therefore it might be worth stopping in if you happen to be passing a store.

Brilliant i will pop in while in town tomorrow :j

I got a great nappy bargain today so hope this also helps someone else!
All sizes of Pampers Active fit essential packs are currently half price in Boots at £4.99. There were also signs up saying '3 for 2 on all nappies' so I took 9 packs to the till and the 3 for 2 didn't work automatically, however they applied the discount manually when I pointed out the signs.
I also had a voucher (through the post) for 300 extra points when you spend £30, plus one for double points (which equated to 120 extra points), then I also received another 360 points as I am a member of the Parenting Club.
I bought some nappy bags to get me over the £30 points threshold so my total was £30.44 for 324 size 4+ nappies, but if you take into account the extra points then it works out at £22.64 which is just under 7p per nappy and I think their usual value is about 25p per nappy.
Really hope that makes sense and that my maths is right :-)

Thanks for this, just a quick question, I am expecting my first baby mid August, and I am trying to stock up on some nappies to see us through the first few weeks / months.
So far I have 124 size 1 new born nappies & 108 size 2 nappies.
If you were me, would you buy many more size 1 or go with sizes 2 & 3?
Guessing game I know, as it will depend on the size of the baby

My three month old :-) was only 6lb 3oz at birth (5kg now) but he seemed to grow a size a month - now on size 3. Even though the smaller sizes still fit him they start to come up a bit short so can leak and there is a big overlap in the weight bands so can easily move up in size. I would say you have enough 1's & 2's and should probably go for threes now.

Best of luck for your new arrival! X

Just been to 2 of my local boots and they have signs up saying active fit essential packs are excluded from the 3 for 2 so well done on getting yours :j
